The Technique

What Are
Combo Brows?

Combo Brows blend two techniques into one flawless result — crisp, hair-like nano strokes along the front and edges, with soft powder shading through the body and tail for added depth and dimension. The effect is a brow that looks naturally full from every angle — defined enough to skip your brow pencil, soft enough that no one will guess it's permanent makeup.

✦
HAIR STROKES + SHADING
The front of the brow features realistic nano strokes, while the body is softly shaded — combining structure with softness.
✦
IDEAL FOR MOST SKIN TYPES
Combo Brows work beautifully on oily, combination, and normal skin — the shading component ensures lasting pigment retention.
✦
FULL & DEFINED
Clients who want brows that look like they've been filled in — but naturally — choose Combo Brows for that effortlessly polished finish.

FAQ

Everything you need to know before your Combo Brows appointment.

6 most asked questions

Combo Brows combine two techniques in a single session: nano hair strokes at the front and edges of the brow for a natural, feathered look, plus soft powder shading through the body and tail for added fullness and definition. Nano Brows use hair strokes only. Combo Brows are ideal if you want the realism of individual strokes with the polished look of filled-in brows.
Yes. The powder shading component of Combo Brows holds pigment exceptionally well in oily skin — better than hair strokes alone. The shading in the body of the brow helps the result last longer and stay crisp, while the nano strokes at the front still give you that natural, feathered edge.
A full Combo Brow appointment typically takes 2.5 to 3 hours. This includes consultation and brow mapping (30 min), numbing time (20 min), and the Combo Brow procedure (90–120 min). We never rush — precision and artistry are our priorities.
Days 1–7: Brows appear darker and bolder; slight redness may occur. Days 7–14: Scabbing and flaking begins — do not pick. Days 14–28: Color lightens 30–40% as skin heals. Weeks 4–6: Healing complete, touch-up scheduled. The shaded area may appear slightly more saturated initially, but softens beautifully as it heals.
Yes, a touch-up is highly recommended 6–8 weeks after your initial session to refine shape, add density, and ensure long-lasting results.
Combo Brows are ideal if you want brows that look naturally full and defined — like you've filled them in perfectly every morning. If you love the idea of realistic hair strokes but also want that extra softness and density, Combo is your technique. Still not sure? Book your session and your artist will help you choose the right technique at your appointment.
